HISTORY/NOTES
Andrew Bulwer-Lytton is a son of the distinguished
literary publishing family. After a fairly undistinguished
term at Harrow, and the obligatory stint in the army (in his
case the Royal Marines, serving in Hong Kong and Nepal), he
took up a job in the family publishing business. After a
couple of years in London, his experience in Asia led to him
being given the head job of the Pacific Rim arm of the
business, based in Hong Kong. Since it doesn't require a
great deal of his time, he has been able to indulge his
interests in asian art - both ancient and martial. He even
met a charming girl, who he would have taken home to meet
Mummy in an instant if Munmmy wasn't so funny about asian
ladies. And then one night she suddenly vanished! Andrew was
devastated and the rumour that her disappearance had
something to do with a certain crimelord led him to don a
trilby and trench-coat and ask some pointed questions in the
more squalid quarters of town. Although the number of
tough-looking gentlemen making trips to hospital has
suddenly reached unseasonable levels, he hasn't got any
satisfactory answers yet. Still, he's going to find Zhou
Zhing, if he has to ransack every grubby bar in Mongkok to
do it. And when he finds her abductors, he's going to hurt
them - badly. Unless Mummy was behind it, of course. He
wouldn't put it past her - the old cow has contacts
everywhere...

APPEARANCE/BEHAVIOUR
Andrew is instantly identifiable - tall, blonde,
blue-eyed and english to the core. You know just looking at
him that he says "I say" and "Rather" a lot, was on the
first XV at school, and that his acquaintances describe him
as "A decent sort". He believes strongly in doing right,
treating the ladies with respect and defending the Empire.
Still, he's been around enough to know that sometimes even a
decent chap has to bloody his knuckles when it comes to
serious business like the Great Game.
